Where to eat the best Pizza in Stockport
Pepperoni, green pepper, olives and extra cheese thanks, and I won’t be entertaining the pineapple debate here. What I do want to know is… ’nduja?
The reason we all love pizza is actual science. That mix of savoury sauce, salty toppings and melted cheese is designed to hit the brain’s happy buttons, and since Stockport seems to be spinning pizza dough on pretty much every corner, here’s the SK Lowdown guide grown up pizza places that are slicing it up right:
Alfredo’s Social
📍 23–27 Little Underbank, Stockport SK1 1LA
A long-standing favourite tucked into the Underbank, you can expect Italian-style pizzas with generous toppings, from classic margaritas to the ‘Stockport Hot’. The restaurant itself is set in the historic Winters building, and a family-friendly option that works just as well midweek as it does on a Friday night.
